Oh well

It'll take a miracle to shut out Holland, we need to keep attacking.

Lol J4L. You sound salty as f*ck. The Heat getting murked got you that down? I don't really feel like getting into it with you (watching Captain Phillips) but I do recall me and you having a difference of opinion between which franchise was more worthy of emulating, you said the Heat and I said San Antonio. SA has beaten the GOAT (lol) LeBron 2 outta 3, really should be 3 outta 3 though... BTW you might want to hand in your Bulls fan card already. That Heat bandwagon is a little lighter nowadays so just go full out, bro. And let's just totally ignore the Bulls got past Patrick Ewing, Alonzo Mourning and Shaq in the East.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 28, 2014 -> 07:33 PM) I'll take Bosh at a max contract in a heartbeat if it somehow could happen. I don't know about a max contract but close to it, yeah. Part of Bosh regression is that he's had to adjust his game to LeBron, he's basically a spot up shooter now. With the Bulls, we'd have him closer to the rim (you'd think).

Meh, Wade is s*** and Bosh has regressed with LeBron. Even if they get Lowry, that doesn't change the dynamic all that much. San Antonio has shown us the importance of depth. I don't see how they're gonna upgrade their biggest weaknesses, their lack of a quality big and a decent bench. San Antonio is basically intact, they are a much bigger threat to repeat than the Heat to be top dog again. Also, let's be honest, San Antonio should've won 2 years ago and this year they blew Miami out. The Heat aren't that good once you get past LeBron, they wouldn't have had four straight NBA Finals if the East wasn't total garbage.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jun 28, 2014 -> 06:18 PM) Would the wise bet be Netherlands and Costa Rica for victories tomorrow? Yes sir.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 28, 2014 -> 04:50 PM) Haven't lost a competitive international game since 75. I am rooting majorly against them but they have the talent and ability, they have been choppy though. The two teams I can't stand winning are Mexico / Brazil. Thanks alot Seriously though, this Brazilian side is the least talented WC team I can remember, if I were a betting man, I'd put money on them not making it to the Final. About Mexico vs Netherlands, I'm cautiously optimistic but the Netherlands are insanely good, I don't think we'll get past them tomorrow. Just hoping for a good showing by El Tri.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jun 28, 2014 -> 02:24 PM) It's real easy for people who have never been in a situation like that yell "choke". It is what is what it is, bruh.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jun 28, 2014 -> 02:06 PM) No one choked Um, yeah. A good shooter should almost never miss PK, the goalie is at a great disadvantage. It's been proven that missed PKs is a result of a kicker wilting under the pressure, thus it is fair to say they choked.

Not taking anything away from Chile but I'll be shocked if Brazil makes it to the Final.

Dat choke job

Brasil just going with long balls from their own end, that isn't their game.

Solid work by the ref so far

Both teams with boneheaded turnovers

Two flops, one by each team, ref didn't bite, great job.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 28, 2014 -> 09:35 AM) I get it. I think Chile gets Brazil today. I hope your right but I wouldn't be surprised at some home cooking from the refs. Brasil and Colombia pass today IMO

We should all just forget Anthony, he's playing us and the other teams he's 'interested' in for leverage.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 26, 2014 -> 09:13 PM) At the risk of 2k5 calling me a bandwagoner, Heat got themselves a baller. You also were talking up Beasley and Oden when the Heat got them so...

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 26, 2014 -> 09:05 PM) Adam Silver is at least in the picture for world's biggest ears.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 26, 2014 -> 08:42 PM) Denver has absolutely killed this draft. Yeah, but they got players who'll leave as soon as they hit FA, lol

QUOTE (kev211 @ Jun 26, 2014 -> 08:32 PM) Maybe we should trust the organization on the draft front? They've done a pretty good job with drafting over the years. Since I don't follow college ball, God I hope you're right.

Gotta feel bad for that kid

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Jun 26, 2014 -> 01:28 PM) Korea yes. Belgium is really a toss up, it will be a tight game. IMO As a fan of El Tri, I'd take playing Belgium over the Netherlands a million times over. The US will beat them, stop underrating them
